Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of forming a metal layer in a diode structure and more particularly, to an electroless plated metal layer formation method for diode chips/wafers.
- light In light emitting diodes and laser diodes, light is a form of energy that can be released by an atom. It is made up of many photons that are the most basic units of light. Photons are released as a result of moving electrons. In an atom, electrons move in orbitals around the nucleus. Light emitting diodes and laser diodes are found in all kinds of devices in our daily life for the advantages of small size, long life, low driving voltage, low power consumption, and fast reactive speed.
- vapor deposition and sputtering deposition are commonly employed to the fabrication of light emitting diodes and laser diodes.
- These deposition methods cause deposition of the applied metal target material on the workpiece as well as the inside surface of the peripheral wall of the vacuum chamber, i.e., these deposition methods result in waste of the metal target material and contamination of the vacuum chamber, thereby affecting the quality of the deposited metal layer.
- double-sided treatment the vacuum status of the vacuum chamber must be destroyed and then the wafer must be turned upside down for further deposition, prolonging the manufacturing time.
- the present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is one object of the present invention to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method, which is practical to form a uniform metal layer on each of two opposite sides of a diode chip or wafer, thereby shortening the manufacturing process and significantly lowering the manufacturing cost.
- the electroless plated metal layer formation method includes the steps of: (a): providing a diode chip/wafer; (b): forming on the diode chip/wafer at least one predetermined location a patterned metal base material; and (c): employing an electroless metal reduction wet process to form a metal layer on the diode chip/wafer that surrounds the border of the patterned metal base material on the diode chip/wafer at each of the at least one predetermined location.

- 2. Description of the Related Art
- In light emitting diodes and laser diodes, light is a form of energy that can be released by an atom. It is made up of many photons that are the most basic units of light. Photons are released as a result of moving electrons. In an atom, electrons move in orbitals around the nucleus. Light emitting diodes and laser diodes are found in all kinds of devices in our daily life for the advantages of small size, long life, low driving voltage, low power consumption, and fast reactive speed.
- According to conventional manufacturing technology, vapor deposition and sputtering deposition are commonly employed to the fabrication of light emitting diodes and laser diodes. These deposition methods cause deposition of the applied metal target material on the workpiece as well as the inside surface of the peripheral wall of the vacuum chamber, i.e., these deposition methods result in waste of the metal target material and contamination of the vacuum chamber, thereby affecting the quality of the deposited metal layer. In case the so-called double-sided treatment is necessary, the vacuum status of the vacuum chamber must be destroyed and then the wafer must be turned upside down for further deposition, prolonging the manufacturing time.
- Therefore, it is desirable to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method for diode chips/wafers that eliminates the aforesaid drawbacks.
- The present invention has been accomplished under the circumstances in view. It is one object of the present invention to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method, which is practical to form a uniform metal layer on each of two opposite sides of a diode chip or wafer, thereby shortening the manufacturing process and significantly lowering the manufacturing cost.
- It is another object of the present invention to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method, which employs an electroless plating process to selectively form a metal layer on or around the metal base material instead of whole surface vapor or sputtering deposition, thereby saving consumption of metal material and electric power and lowering operating and manufacturing cost.
- It is still another object of the present invention to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method, which requires an expense on equipment much lower than vapor deposition or sputtering deposition, thereby saving equipment investment and lower the manufacturing cost.
- It is still another object of the present invention to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method, which is practical to form a metal layer that has a rough surface suitable for wiring bonding or soldering, thereby improving the reliability of the product quality and enhancing the market competivity of the product.
- It is still another object of the present invention to provide an electroless plated metal layer formation method, which is practical to form a metal layer suitable for forming metal bumps, metal pads, metal wires or heat plate, or for the purposes of wire bonding, soldering, or flip-chip package.
- To achieve these and other objects of the present invention, the electroless plated metal layer formation method includes the steps of: (a): providing a diode chip/wafer; (b): forming on the diode chip/wafer at least one predetermined location a patterned metal base material; and (c): employing an electroless metal reduction wet process to form a metal layer on the diode chip/wafer that surrounds the border of the patterned metal base material on the diode chip/wafer at each of the at least one predetermined location.
- According to an alternate form of the present invention, the electroless metal layer formation method includes the steps of: (a): providing a diode chip/wafer; (b): forming on the diode chip/wafer at predetermined locations a patterned metal base material; (c): forming on the diode chip/wafer an isolation layer over the patterned metal base material; (d): forming openings on the isolation layer subject to a predetermined pattern to have the patterned metal base material be exposed to the outside; and (e): employing an electroless plating process to deposit a metal layer on the patterned metal base material corresponding to the openings.

- The metal layer formed by means of the application of an electroless plating process according to the present invention may surround the metal base material. When wishing to limit the metal layer to specific locations on the metal base layer, an isolation layer is formed by means of the application of an dielectric material such as SiO2, photoresist, or PI, and then openings are formed on the isolation layer subject to the desired locations, and then an electroless plating process is employed to deposit the desired metal layer on the metal base layer in the openings of the isolation layer.
